\"Paymill<\/p>\n

Paymill announced the launch of their Mobile SDK<\/a> today, bringing their simplified payments solution (and detailed documentation) to iOS and Android. The goal is to help developers in Europe take advantage of the 50%+ of Europeans who have smartphones, as well as to enable the continued rise of Mobile Commerce.<\/p>\n

The online payments space has been quite crowded in recent months – floating to the top and becoming the reference for payments integration is quite a battle, though Paymill has managed to deliver new products at a steady pace. Of course, incumbent PayPal has had a Mobile SDK for quite a while; however, the number of competitors in Online Payments integration widdles down when you begin talking about Mobile App Payments integration.<\/p>\n

In order to get a better idea of the mobile payments market landscape today, I sat down with Paymill CEO Mark Henkel to talk about the announcement.<\/p>\n

How are Mobile developers integrating payments into their apps today?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
\"MarkPAYMILL\u2018s\u00a0Mobile SDK\u00a0is designed to make easy in-app payments. Today,\u00a0such payments are mostly processed via the respective app-stores (Apple App Store or Google Play, Amazon etc …)\u00a0which has advantages (very frictionless integration \u2013 users usually have an account) but also major disadvantages (very high\u00a0transaction fees\u00a0\u2013 normally\u00a0between 20-30% of the amount).\u00a0Other opportunities are to redirect a customer to a store\u2019s regular web-site and use its checkout and payment facilities. This is usually inconvenient for the end-customer.\u00a0PAYMILL closes the gap to make\u00a0easy in-app payments with\u00a0apayment provider\u00a0different from the app-store\u00a0payment services.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Where do you see the biggest opportunities for Mobile SDK?\u00a0Mobile Commerce? Converting Freemium users to Paying via mobile (a big pain today)?<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n
In the past, mobile commerce was largely neglected by traditional payment providers due to small market size and lack of adequate devices. Today, ubiquitous modern smartphones allow for convenient access to e-commerce applications and, as a consequence, the market is steeply growing.\u00a0In the segment of traditional e-commerce, PAYMILL offers a product that meets modern mobile commerce requirements without the high fees of app-store related payment services.\u00a0Based on the Mobile-SDK, e-commerce merchants can trade their goods through proprietary apps without losing conversion through redirections.\u00a0Furthermore, they are able to offer complete multi-channel-shopping and can thereby increase customer loyalty.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
